The FastDay Forum

Well, this was my first real week on the fast diet. I did really well on my first fast day and the 2nd day, I went over my calories by a little. I don't feel that I overindulged at all on the other days and I walked 4 miles yesterday. Yet today on the scale 0 change.

But, I'm not going to give up. I'm going to keep going. Today is a fast day for me and I have a healthy filling meal prepared for dinner tonight. I'm going to try to keep busy afterwards to keep from snacking after dinner.

Welcome. Keep going, it took me a month before my body got the message. Sometimes patience pays.

Oh how strange, there's another post on here almost identical! I know it's disheartening but don't give up...and always remember to check your measurements if there's no result on the scales. That can sometimes give you a better result. Don't despair, with 5:2 you'll get there...eventually

Thank you! I will keep at it! Right now, I'm not tracking my calories on other days, but after the holidays if I'm still struggling I will.

That's a good plan. If your weight remains stubborn, there are lots of tips in the 'explore the 5:2 diet' > 'not losing weight' section.

Hi and welcome:

This will explain it: post71147.html#p71147

Enjoy the ride!

simcoeluv I'm sure you sit just waiting for these posts lol.

Thank you. I actually had come across your post before and found it very funny and also helpful! Thank you!

Our bodies take time to register changes, we all have different stories to share !

Take some pics and measurements as you may loose cms/inches before the scales show.

Good luck

Hi and Welcome.
Just hang on in there keep doing what you've been doing and don't worry about sometimes having a few extra calories until you've got used to meals and calorie count of certain foods, just give this WOL time to weave its
magic on you

Good. Luck. Sue.
